"A different side of the extinction story" is the main purpose of the exhibition "Extinction - The end or the beginning", organised by the Natural History Museum of London, jointly with OTW and on show at The Customs Building in Porto from 28th May till 8th October.

According to Alex Fairhead, the Exhibition developer, extinction is not necessarily a bad thing as it can "teach species the way to evolve and to thrive".

If you thought there was nothing new under the sun regarding extinction, think again because this show takes you beyond dinosaurs and dodos' extinction.

This a dynamic understanding of what is going on at planet level from turtles to mammals, with plenty of unfinished stories.

This is an interactive experience suitable to all public from different ages, featuring dynamic games and simulations, and the screening of interactive films.
